四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 3.161

3.161

四受法差別。凡論受法，要心境相當，如律中錯受穌油，不成受等；必須仰手承之（《五分》所云：從他淨人邊抄撥而取，非法）；情相領當（謂僧、俗二心，同緣一事）。除其眼闇，及不喜沙門，驚急緣者，置地而受。既知情事多違，預前運心普受。

Fourth: distinctions in the method of receipt. Whenever discussing the method of receipt, intention and object must correspond. For example, in the Vinaya, receiving oil by mistake when intending butter does not effect receipt; one must hold out one's hands palms up to receive it (the *Pañcavargika-vinaya* states that snatching or fishing it out from another kappiyakāraka is unlawful); and their intentions must correspond (meaning that the minds of both saṃgha and layperson are directed toward the same matter). Except in cases of blindness, or when dealing with someone hostile to śramaṇas, or in alarming and urgent situations, one receives it by having it placed on the ground. Knowing that intentions and circumstances often conflict, one should in advance arouse the intention to receive generally.
